Re: Colloidal silver a Super Antibiotic

January 30, 2009

I had a postive experience with colloidal silver as well. I have a

cyst on my thigh that has become infected (and grown very large)

twice. The first time I did a round of abx for it, and that worked.

But the second time it became infected, I just decided to work with

colloidal silver orally, and sure enough, the cyst went down to its

usual tiny pimple size again.

One person in my MS support group uses colloidal silver every day and

says it keeps his MS in remission, but I have been afraid to use it

long term as I don't understand it, and I see it as a metal, plus the

blue guy thing.

It is not really meant to be used long term. Argyia is a concern if

you use an inferior product in high concentrations for too long, but

I think a relatively low concentration for a period long enough to be

therapeutic would be okay. You've had good results with it

before...so you know what it can do. Many metals don't have to be

feared, because our bodies have trace amounts of metals in them that

are necessary for health, and silver has proven to be helpful over

many years.

Some people are struggling in their health due to viral infections,

subclinical fungal or bacterial infections...and colloidal silver can

take care of that beautifully. What about a short trial of a low ppm

to see how you feel on it? Has anyone on that other group spoken

about any side effects (besides the gray skin possibility?)

Colloidal silver a Super Antibiotic

I use colloidal silver. It has helped with earaches (gone in about an hour), with wounds as a topical antiseptic, and for general use for health. We use it for short periods of time vs long ones. If you have not used it, check it out. http://www.all-natural.com/silver-1.html

Colloidal Silver -

The Rediscovery of a Super Antibiotic?

Colloidal silver appears to be a powerful, natural antibiotic and preventative against infections. Acting as a catalyst, it reportedly disables the enzyme that one-celled bacteria, viruses and fungi need for their oxygen metabolism. They suffocate without corresponding harm occurring to human enzymes or parts of the human body chemistry. The result is the destruction of disease-causing organisms in the body and in the food.

Early Research

Colloidal silver was in common use until 1938. Many remember their grandparents putting silver dollars in milk to prolong its freshness at room temperature. At the turn of the century, scientists had discovered that the body's most important fluids are colloidal in nature: suspended ultra-fine particles. Blood, for example, carries nutrition and oxygen to the body cells. This led to studies with colloidal silver. Prior to 1938, colloidal silver was used by physicians as a mainstream antibiotic treatment and was considered quite "high-tech." Production methods, however, were costly. The pharmaceutical industry moved in, causing colloidal research to be set aside in favor of fast working and financially lucrative drugs.

The Food and Drug Administration today classifies colloidal silver as a pre-1938 drug. A letter from the FDA dated 9/13/91 states: "These products may continue to be marketed . . . as long as they are advertised and labeled for the same use as in 1938 and as long as they are manufactured in the original manner." Some of the manufacturing methods used before 1938 are still used today. An electro-colloidal process, which is known to be the best method, is used.

Contemporary Studies

While studying regeneration of limbs, spinal cords and organs in the late 1970s, O. Becker, M.D., author of The Body Electric, discovered that silver ions promote bone growth and kill surrounding bacteria. The March 1978 issue of Science Digest, in an article, "Our Mightiest Germ Fighter," reported: "Thanks to eye-opening research, silver is emerging as a wonder of modern medicine. An antibiotic kills perhaps a half-dozen different disease organisms, but silver kills some 650. Resistant strains fail to develop. Moreover, silver is virtually non-toxic." The article ended with a quote by Dr. Harry Margraf, a biochemist and pioneering silver researcher who worked with the late Carl Moyer, M.D., chairman of Washington University's Department of Surgery in the 1970s: "Silver is the best all-around germ fighter we have."

How It Works

The presence of colloidal silver near a virus, fungus, bacterium or any other single celled pathogen disables its oxygen metabolism enzyme, its chemical lung, so to say. Within a few minutes, the pathogen suffocates and dies, and is cleared out of the body by the immune, lymphatic and elimination systems. Unlike pharmaceutical antibiotics, which destroy beneficial enzymes, colloidal silver leaves these tissue-cell enzymes intact, as they are radically different from the enzymes of primitive single-celled life. Thus colloidal silver is absolutely safe for humans, reptiles, plants and all multi-celled living matter.

Product Quality

Many brands of colloidal silver are inferior. The highest grade is produced by the electro-colloidal / non-chemical method where the silver particles and water have been colloided, i.e., dispersed within and bound to each other by an electric current. The super-fine silver particles are suspended indefinitely in demineralized water. The ideal color of colloidal silver is a golden yellow. Darker colors indicate larger silver particles that tend to collect at the bottom of the container and are not true colloids. If a product contains a stabilizer or lists trace elements other than silver, or if it needs to be shaken, it is inferior. If a product requires refrigeration, some other ingredient is present that could spoil. The container and dropper must be glass, as plastic cannot preserve the silver in liquid suspension for any length of time. Some brands with high concentrations of silver may actually not be completely safe. High concentrations of silver do not kill disease germs more effectively than the safe range of 3 to 5 parts per million (ppm.).

Ingesting Colloidal Silver

Taken orally, the silver solution is absorbed from the mouth into the bloodstream, then transported quickly to the body cells. Swishing the solution under the tongue briefly before swallowing may result in faster absorption. In three to four days the silver may accumulate in the tissues sufficiently for benefits to begin. Colloidal silver is eliminated by the kidneys, lymph system and bowel after several weeks. If routinely exposed to dangerous pathogenic germs, some recommend a regular daily intake as a protection. In cases of minor burns, an accumulation of colloidal silver may hasten healing, reducing the possibility of scar tissue and infection. It is believed by many in the natural healing arts that the lives of millions of people who are susceptible to chronic low-grade infections can be enhanced by this preventative health measure.

Chronic or Serious Conditions

1 teaspoon of 5 ppm. colloidal silver equals about 25 micrograms (mcg.) of silver. 1 - 4 teaspoons per day (25 - 100 mcg.) is generally considered to be a "nutritional amount" and is reported to be safe to use for extended periods of time. Amounts higher than this are generally considered "therapeutic amounts" and should only be used periodically.

In cases of illness, natural health practitioners have often recommended taking double or triple the "nutritional amount" for 30 to 45 days, then dropping down to a smaller maintenance dose. Amounts from 1 - 32 ounces per day have reportedly been used in acute conditions.

If your body is extremely ill or toxic, do not be in a hurry to clear up everything at once. If pathogens are killed off too quickly, the body's five eliminatory channels (liver, kidneys, skin, lungs and bowel) may be temporarily overloaded, causing flu-like conditions, headache, extreme fatigue, dizziness, nausea or aching muscles. Ease off on the colloidal silver to a smaller amount and increase your distilled water intake. Regular bowel movements are a must in order to relieve the discomforts of detoxification. Resolve to reduce sugar and saturated fats from the diet, and exercise more. Given the opportunity, the body's natural ability to heal may amaze you.

Topical Uses

Some have used colloidal silver in a nasal spray mister - to reach the sinuses and nasal passages. Spray bottles have been used for topical use on kitchen and bathroom surfaces, skin, sore throat, eyes, burns, etc. Colloidal silver is painless on cuts, abrasions, in open wounds, in the nostrils for a stuffy nose, and even in a baby's eyes because, unlike some antiseptics, it does not destroy tissue cells. It's excellent as an underarm deodorant, since most underarm odor is caused by bacteria breaking down substances released by the sweat glands!

Some Common Uses of Colloidal Silver

Natural health practitioners have for years recommended taking one tablespoon daily, for four days, to establish a level, then one teaspoon daily for maintenance (proportional to body weight for children). After six weeks, a pause of several weeks has also been recommended by some natural healing arts doctors. Also, colloidal silver can be applied directly to cuts, scrapes, and open sores, or on a bandage for warts. It can be applied on eczema, itches, acne or bug bites. To purify water, add one tablespoon per gallon, shake well and wait six minutes. Mixed this way, it's tasteless. It is not an allopathic poison.

Veterinary and Garden Use

Colloidal silver has worked just as well on pets of all kinds. Used in proportion to body weight, it should bring the same results. In the garden, field or greenhouse, add enough to the water or soil - and the plants will do the rest.

Tolerance To Disease Organisms

We have all heard of the "super-germs" that are resistant to most modern antibiotics. Some believe that single-celled germs cannot mutate into silver-resistant forms, as happens with conventional antibiotics. Therefore no tolerance to colloidal silver would develop through mutation. Also, colloidal silver has not been demonstrated to interact or interfere with other medicines being taken. Inside the body, silver apparently does not form toxic compounds or react with anything other than a germ's oxygen-metabolizing enzyme. Colloidal silver may truly be a safe, natural remedy for many of mankind's ills.

Additionally, there has never been a drug interaction reported between colloidal silver and any other medication. It's difficult to overdose - unless large amounts are ingested. Colloidal silver has been reported by users to be both a remedy and a prevention for numerous infections, colds, flus, and fermentations due to various bacteria, viruses or fungi, even the non-apparent low-grade, general body infections many people have. Living organisms are in the colloidal chemical state, not the crystalline state. Substances already in that form may be more readily assimilated by the body. Colloidal silver is the most useable form of a reputedly effective germ fighter.

A colloidal suspension is ultra-fine particles of one substance, suspended by an electric charge in another substance. Homogenized milk and aerosol sprays are colloidal suspensions. Colloidal silver is pure, metallic silver (not a chemical compound) of particles 15 atoms or fewer, each with a positive electric charge, and attached to a molecule of simple protein. This new particle floats in pure water. The electric charge is stronger than gravity so the silver particles don't sink.

Colloidal Silver in Advance of Illness?

When the possibility of germ exposure is higher, colloidal silver can be taken orally each day or applied topically when there is a skin problem. It's like having a second defense system. The silver acts only as a catalyst and is stabilized. It is non-toxic, except to one-cell plants and animals, and is non-addicting. It also apparently kills parasites because they have a one cell egg stage in their reproductive cycle.

Older folks reportedly feel younger because their body energies are used for other uses than constantly fighting disease. Digestion has also been reportedly better. Medical research has shown that silver promotes more rapid healing, with less scar tissue, even in the case of severe burns. Successes have been reported in cases that previously have been given up by established doctors. Colloidal silver is tasteless and won't sting even a baby's eyes, and won't upset your stomach.

More Than 650 Diseases Helped?

Colloidal silver has been reported to kill 650 micro-organisms, many of which are associated with human diseases. This does not automatically mean that taking colloidal silver will "cure" diseases "caused" by these germs. Colloidal silver only kills micro-organisms when they are in contact with it for a sufficient period of time. The human body is a complex system which may prevent high enough concentrations of colloidal silver from reaching the "affected area".

The basic guideline that has been recommended for using colloidal silver is that it usually "works" if you can get a high enough concentration to the "affected area". Some will want to experiment with "higher amounts" (such as 8 or more ounces at a time) to find out what it takes to accomplish this. Do not use colloidal silver if you are allergic to contact with silver metals, or if you notice any digestive upset after use.

The following is a partial list of the more than 650 diseases that colloidal silver has been reputed to be successful against: acne, AIDS (Reference 8), allergies, appendicitis, arthritis, athlete's foot, bladder inflammation, blood parasites, blood poisoning, boils, burns, cancer (References 2, 4, 7), candida, cholera, colitis, conjunctivitis, cystitis, dermatitis, diabetes (Reference 1), dysentery, eczema, fibrositis, gastritis, gonorrhea, hay fever, herpes, impetigo, indigestion, keratitis, leprosy, leukemia, lupus, lymphangitis, Lyme disease, malaria, meningitis, neurasthenia, parasitic infections: viral, fungal and bacterial pneumonia, pleurisy, prostate, pruritus ani, psoriasis, purulent opthalmia, rhinitis, rheumatism, ringworm, scarlet fever, septic conditions of the eyes, ears, mouth, and throat, seborrhea, septicemia, shingles, skin cancer, staphylococcus and streptococcus infections, stomach flu, syphilis, thyroid, tuberculosis, tonsillitis, toxemia, trachoma, all forms of virus, warts, whooping cough, yeast infection, stomach ulcer, canine parovirus and other veterinary uses, and fungal and viral attacks on plants. Simply spray diluted silver on the leaves and add to the soil.

References

"Use of Colloids in Health and Disease." Colloidal silver has proven particularly effective in cases of intestinal troubles. Dr. Henry Crooks found that "silver in the colloidal state is highly germicidal, quite harmless to humans and absolutely non-toxic. Rather than in a chemical compound, the silver in the colloidal state may be applied in a much more concentrated form, with correspondingly better results. All virus, fungus, bacterium, streptococcus, staphylococcus, and other pathogenic organisms are killed in three or four minutes upon contact. There are no side effects whatsoever from the highest concentrations."

Dr. Becker, " The Body Electric," recognized a correlation between low silver levels and sickness. He said the silver deficiency was responsible for the improper functioning of the immune system. Dr. Becker's experiments conclude that silver works on the full spectrum of pathogens without any side effects or damage to any part of the body. He also states that the silver was doing something more than killing disease organisms. It was also causing major growth stimulation of injured tissues. Burn patients and elderly patients noticed more rapid healing. He discovered that all cancer cells change back to normal cells. All strains of pathogens resistant to other antibiotics are killed by colloidal silver. Yet at that time he couldn't find a silver supplement on the market.

"Silver, Our Mightiest Germ Fighter," ScienceDigest, March 1978. As an antibiotic, colloidal silver kills over 650 disease causing organisms, and resistant strains fail to develop. Silver is the best all-around germ fighter we have and is absolutely non-toxic! Doctors report that, taken internally, it works against syphilis, cholera, malaria, diabetes and severe burns. L. Davies, executive director of the Silver Institute which monitors silver technology in 37 countries, reports: "In four years we've described 87 important new medical uses for silver."

Dr. Bjorn Nordstrom, of the Karolinska Institute, Sweden, has used silver in his cancer treatment method. He says the whole thing is quite simple. This brought rapid remission in patients given up on by other doctors.

The FDA has stated that because colloidal silver is accepted as a pre-1938 medication, it may continue to be marketed. Letter, 13 September 1991, received from consumer safety officer Harold , U.S. Food and Drug Administration.

GG,I use this brand, that you can get on Amazon.com at a good price.http://www.amazon.com/Natural-Path-Silver-Wings-Supplement/dp/B000BT4CFE/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8 & s=hpc & qid=1233427454 & sr=1-2Natural Path/ Silver Wings Colloidal Silver 250 ppmProduct Description Since 1994, Natural Path / Silver Wings'

has manufactured the superior quality and concentration colloidal

silver on the market. We offer colloidal silver in strengths of 250 ppm

and 500 ppm, which can be diluted to smaller parts per million, such as

10 ppm and 30 ppm . Natural Path / Silver Wings offers the easy to

dilute instructions for customers who prefer to take a daily dose of

colloidal silver. Many of our customers prefer to take a full strength

dose as needed. Our colloidal silver is guaranteed to be a

pharmaceutical grade of Mild Silver Protein (99.9% and 0.1% casein),

which stays in suspension indefinitely when store properly. NPSW's

colloidal silver is made with deoinized water (the water is so ultra

pure that it is the same type of water used with dialysis patients).

Our colloidal silver is tested for purity and efficacy with in-house

lab testing and independent laboratories for micron particle size,

parts per million, and particle conductivity. These tests are preformed

with every lot number, when it is manufactured, one, two and three

years later. A common myth is that all colloidal silvers on the market

should be colorless. Many companies that distribute 10 ppm colloidal

silver want you to believe colloidal silver is supposed to be clear.

However, colloidal silver's color can range from a clear and colorless

to a very dark amber color (still clear with a darker amber tint). As a

rule, the higher the concentration of colloidal silver, the darker the

color of the solution- a dark yellow or brownish amber being the

highest quality. Natural Path / Silver Wings 250 ppm and 500 ppm

colloidal silver can be diluted to 10 ppm, thus making it colorless.------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ am wondering if you know of a good brand or brands of ths collodial silver.

thanks.

The dilution instructions I have on my bottle of 250ppm to make a 10

ppm solution is to use 25 drops in one ounce of water. You can

safely take this daily to fight infections of many kinds.

You can also use this as a nasal spray or in a neti pot to fight sinus

infections.

There is a member of MS cured group who claims that a long term trial

of Colloidal Silver can help distinguish if one really has " MS " as

opposed to something like Lyme or other infections. He recommends

taking Colloidal Silver every 2 hours around the clock for 2 weeks.

He claims that if symptoms improve at the end of the 2 weeks, this is

proof that Lyme of infection is the problem rather than " MS " per se.

He recommends 10ppm per serving, which I think is a standard dose. I

have been reluctant to try his protocol--not in regard to taking it

for 2 weeks (which is not that long) but at the idea of taking it

every 2 hours around the clock.

I have heard a number of stories of people who were diagnosed with MS

and then were healed with antibiotics. This would suggest that some

cases of MS are really just infections or Lyme. The man I mentioned

before says that the Colloidal Silver trial is a way to figure this

out.

I am still too scared of the blue/gray man syndrome.

However, I am comfortable with taking it several times a day for

several days for an acute infection, such as the cyst I mentioned

earlier. I think it even helped when I had the vaginal burning.

Any other thoughts?

The brand I use is called Sovereign Silver, and I buy it at Whole

Foods. It is in doses of 10ppm. The reason I like it so much is that

it only has two ingredients: Colloidal Silver and Purified water.

Nothing else.

However, I think the brand Patty recommended would be much more

economical, as the price is similar but the one she recommended gets

diluted and hence would last much longer.

Patty, how long do you think it is safe to take CS and how much in a

day. Any idea?

,It would depend on the concentration you are using, and other factors, but in looking at some guidelines, I think it would be safe to take it in low ppm for several weeks to a month, as a trial for elimination of viruses. I would suggest doing more reading until you feel safe taking the recommended doses of the brand you buy. http://www.soul-guidance.com/health/colloidalsilver.htmBODY BUILDUP AND ELIMINATION

Five to seven days is average for the initial benefit of Colloidal Silver to begin. Colloidal Silver will build up in the tissues to at least a concentration of five parts per million (5 ppm) at, on the average, by the tenth day. This is the minimum effective concentration. Higher concentrations are desirable, due to the risks of illness from major exposure to a disease outbreak or major burn injury.

One to three weeks after cessation ( again this varies with each individual) the Colloidal Silver effectiveness is finally lost and is eliminated through the kidneys, the lymphatic system and the bowel.

,

I think if you get a high quality colloidal silver, and use low

doses,your risk of argyria goes way down. It is the poor quality and

improperly made colloidal silver products that probably contribute the

most to the development of this condition. I understand your fear (

I've been fearful previously too) but with knowledge comes alleviation

of fears.

I'm not sure I'd do the every 2 hours thing myself. Once a day seems

adequate.

Thanks Patty,

I am not sure if I posted before but among my other issues I show up

positive for being exposed to at least 3 viruses: Epstein Barr,

Cytomeglovirus, and Herpes 6. None were currently active.

Sometimes I wonder why did I have to kiss so many frogs. I know this

is not the only way to get these viruses though.

Anyway, I am unclear if the CS actually kills the viruses, or just

lowers the count somewhat.

Also, you mentioned taking a low ppm for several weeks. Can you add

anything on what might be the maximum ppm in a single day. As I

mentioned previously a member of my other group says to take the

10ppm dose every 2 hours around the clock for two weeks. Does that

seem to high? Again, he says that will let the MSers know if we are

really dealing with MS rather than an infection or virus. Which is a

key question, as MS is an ambiguous disease and some people don't

even feel it is a disease but rather a name for neurological problems

of unknown origin--with different origins in each person. This

concept makes sense to me, unless I am just in denial.
